Next season.

Well that's a creative reaction. I merely named someone I'd like to see here at Torquay, I'd also like to buy a brand new campervan but couldn't afford one. Until the ownership issue is resolved, and we know what scale of ambition they may, or may not have, it's difficult to know type of manager we...

I appreciate you are from yorkshire where equality is a difficult word to spell but I never imagined you were a joey Barton clone.

Torquay Utd under 18

I enjoyed that game today, the young no 7 who decided to do a booth for the first goal, I think he was more shocked than we were judging by the look on his face, I strongly believe that bridgwater had a ringer in their no 10 , tall and built like a second row forward, supposedcly under 18 but he loo...

And you shouldn't trust Hayman either..... As a matter of hard facts I know little about edwards other than his association with osborne, similar on hayman, but she has been in place at the club for longer than both the former names, it is not a great leap to think that with both of them in post th...

No, that is what we do on this forum. Totally agree, while this forum very occasionally becomes the home of the conspiracy theorists, the deluded or the weirdos from the BTPIR they are ususally shut down very quickly by those with factual knowledge or close conenction to the club with more knowledg...

In a season of complete mediocrity there was always something to look forward to with our own fantasy league of pundits, thanks for you season long hardwrok.

Next season.

As much as I like Aaron Downes, I feel if he is told to carry on next season he will try and re- sign as many of the squad as he can. I don't imagine he has a massive amount of contacts either. Too much of a Johnson influence on his coaching. too. I think Downes is in a dificult position, yes, he h...

FA Cup replays scrapped from next season

Another lifeline gone for lower league and non league clubs. Didn't Exeter draw away with Man U and earn a reply to save their bacon? Traditionally Cup replays have been seen as a chance for smaller clubs to earn substantial extra revenues. League Two side Newport County, who had a fourth-round rep...

Reflections on the 23/24 season

The departure of Shaun Donnellan seemed to result in a drop off in form in the New Year. I liked Callum Dollan who gave good energy and would shoot on sight. Completely forgot about Dolan, never went out on loan again after us, he was similar to lapslie but on steroids and a good shot on him, got a...

Think Lovett is good enough for this league. Ash can score goals ( 36 in the last two seasons - how many do you want ? )and works hard, but ridiculous playing him on his own up front He needs a strike partner Despite people moaning about their legs Hall and Moxey have been excellent in the defence ...

Reflections on the 23/24 season

Other than this saturday's carnival atmosphere game which for all I have no doubt will be more in relief than anything else, I wonder how this season went so horribly wrong, we were short odds to be champions or at the least honourable runners up, no one to touch us, full time squad,too many good pl...

If only it was that simple, there may be a confidentiality clause between buyer and club until they have done due diligence.

Taunton Town v Torquay United Tues 16 April KO 19.45.

Don't wish to be pedantic but if you check you will see that a win and a draw could be enough for Taunton to survive if Eastbourne lose their last match away to Braintree. Personally ,I would like Taunton to survive in this league not least because its a short away trip and saves on travelling cost...

Taunton Town v Torquay United Tues 16 April KO 19.45.

Did I enjoy the win, no, I aged ten years, the pitch was a cross between the somme and a beach, not condusive to our way of football, after watching the endeavour of the lads last night I am now more than certain that we threw in the towel before the Yeovil and Bath game, we knew we could not compet...

Agree 100%. Whoever it is, be it Brewdog, be it The Range, be it Poundland, we're all going to have something to moan about once they are announced...and that is the crux of it... WHEN they are announced. All this speculation and rumours is doing my head in. You have to question the motives of thos...
